I murmured, “Probably.” So, a girl had indeed lived there before. I wonder…
I then asked, “Yu Rao, can you tell me what kind of person Qin Xue was?”
Yu Rao saw my increasingly confused expression and, unable to provide a better explanation, said: “Yu Rao isn’t clear about the intricacies either. I only know that in every dynasty, daughters of the Nan Gong family must be sent out before entering the palace to be specially trained, and can only return to the family for investiture when they reach marriageable age!”
“Also, also…” Yu Rao’s gaze was somewhat evasive, looking like she wanted to say something but hesitated.
I couldn’t help but urge: “What else? Just say it quickly!” Yu Rao has always been straightforward, so this hesitation was quite unusual for her!
“Actually, the master likes Miss Qin Xue!” The little girl blurted out and then nervously glanced up at me.
I couldn’t treat these two people with completely different personalities as the same person!
“Elder Sister Ran, what are you talking about?” Jun Yi Chen, wearing an elegant scholarly robe, walked in with a sunshine-like warm smile.
I slightly raised my head, casually glancing at him: “Talking about the radish cake and white brocade you mentioned last time!”
“Huh?” Jun Yi Chen was stunned, blushing awkwardly after a while: “You already know?”
I raised an eyebrow, saying: “You little rascal, you’re quite something! Tricking me again, hm?”
Jun Yi Chen smiled apologetically: “Hehe, good sister, don’t be angry. I came today to take you somewhere. Since you’re determined to be my sister-in-law, I thought it’s necessary to let you know about my brother’s past!”
I closed my eyes and leaned back lazily on the chair, lacking interest: “If you’re talking about the small courtyard in the back garden, forget it. I’ve already been there!”
“Huh? How do you know? Did my brother take you there?” Jun Yi Chen was shocked!
“No, I went by myself!
“
Thinking about it made me uncomfortable. I just played the guqin there once, and it wasn’t that expensive, so why did he look like he wanted to eat me alive!!!
